Game Packages

[Maihym]

Does anyone know when the $30 game packages will get more in stock? It's already down to 330 and I won't be able to buy one today.

They won't be restocked because it's a special occasion. They are being offered for the Christmas sale.

Thanks for clarifying

But yeah, maybe Christmas or an other significant holiday.

actually if I rmember the stream correctly they said this year would be the last time it will be offered at the price. so maybe during the boxing day blitz but if not, we won't see another $30 package

Haha are you kidding me

[rucdoc]

no. they have stated that the pre-release prices would be lower than release pricing. and they are looking to have Squadreon 42 out by summer

Not really.  While they have stated that the low prices we have now will not continue, they have not been very clear about when, other than a vague statement that it will be before SQ42 is split from the packages.  It WILL be split off, it will likely happen prior to SQ42s release.  There is a VERY slim chance that you may get lucky with Gamescom, but I wouldn't count on it.  

 

Prices will increase for base packages and ships until they are the launch price of $60 each for Squadron 42 and Star Citizen ($120 for both).  Launch ships will be lesser versions of the ships available now.  Some have theorized that it will be the Aurora ES with options to upgrade depending on how well you do in SQ42 to any of the starters, or their variants (Aurora, Mustang, and Reliant).  I ascribe to this theory from a familiarity with Chris Roberts' games.

 

Ultimately, you might score each for sale prices, but that woun't be until well past launch, though that will be for the games themselves.  No ships will be sold post launch.
